The best window, 2:00 am to 3:30 am, combines the 2:56 am low tide and a major period. Also worth a try from 4:10 pm to 5:30 pm, with the 4:57 pm low tide and sunset, though with rising pressure. Also good from 8:10 am to 10:10 am, with the 9:07 am high tide.

Species with the most records nearby: common two-banded seabream, saddled seabream, salema and thicklip grey mullet. October is one of the months when these are seen most: European sea bass and striped red mullet. What you can catch

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 9:07 am 0.9 ft · coef. 76
  • ▼ Low tide 4:57 pm -1.0 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 52 min to low tide at 2:56 am.

Tide coefficient 76 for the 9:07 am high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.8 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on June 13 (1.1 ft) and the lowest, on July 15 (-1.4 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 25 to 26 (coefficient 107, 2.0 ft range). The smallest, from October 17 to 18 (coefficient 20, 1.0 ft).

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Mošćenice has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.0 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

Sea and waves

The sea at Mošćenice

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 0.5 ft · 1.9 s from the northeast (49°)
Swell 0.1 ft · 1.9 s from the east-northeast
Current 0.2 mph toward the SSW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.3 ft
  • Significant0.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph ENE · gusts 25
Offshore (16 mi S)Offshore 14 mph NNE · gusts 19

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.9 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:10 am to 10:10 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:20 pm to 5:00 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current.

Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:26–3:26 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:58–3:58 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:24–11:24 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:31–7:31 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity

According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.

Water depth

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 550 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.55 mi.

From the shoreline (0.85 mi from Mošćenice) out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep450 ft
  • 33 ft deep550 ft
  • 66 ft deep750 ft
  • 164 ft deep0.55 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 550 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 550 ft and 66 ft at 750 ft from shore.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
